Answer:
The magnitude of acceleration is 3 m/s^2.
Explanation:
The net force along North-South direction is 18-24=-6 N.
The net force along East-West direction is 16-16=0 N
The net magnitude of force is square root of (-6)^2+0^2 which is 6 N.
By Newton's Second law,
Force F=ma
Therefore acceleration a=F/m
a=6/2
a=3 m/s^2
